WASHINGTON MEMORIES . . day had arrived! Wednesday morning an orange and black bus and a friendly driver were waiting for us. Everyone was delighted to receive a rose or carnation from Mr. Russell. Soon we were off waving hands and shouting to our faithful teacher, Mr. Harvey, and our other friends. At Cono- wlngo we were awed by huge turbines and generators. Arriving at Annapolis we lunched at Carvel Hall. We all enjoyed looking around the beautiful grounds of the Naval Academy. The midshipmen ' s dress parade was fascinating. The precision and rhythm held our attention. Then dinner at the Lafayette and on to the Congressional Library where it seems that Richard was so interested that he got lost between the leaves of one of the larger books. We then went to the Metropolitan Theatre where we saw “Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (but you can ' t prove it by us). Thursday we visited the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. Then we con- tinued on to the Pan-American Building which represents most of the countries of North and South America. The White House was very Interesting. The Washington Monument came next on our list. Who will ever forget those steps? A few were not fond of the “drop” so decided to walk down as well as up. In the Capitol we were shown the Important rooms by a very interesting guide. After lunch we were driven to the Lincoln Memorial. Its simplicity, so be- fitting the man to whom it was dedicated, was quite impressive. After leaving Mount Vernon we stopped at the airport where eight of the nobler members of our class took a ride in one of the planes. That night we took a boat ride on the Potomac. After breakfast on Friday, the all-important business of getting our pictures taken was attended to and the rest of the morning was spent in the National Museum and the Smithsonian Institute. Then we drove through the residential and the embassy sections of the city, St. Alban’s Cathedral, Arlington Cemetery, Lee Mansion, the Natlona ' Amphitheatre, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. John begged to stay at the Zoo, but they didn’t need any duplicates. We spent the evening at Glen Echo Park. Ruth or Dorothea can assure you that we had fun on the return from there. Saturday morning we could do what we wanted. When it came time to leave, Courtney was no where to be found. We visited several other buildings and returned about two hours later and there he was, grinning sheepishly. We kept close tabs on our “wandering boy” while we went through the Franciscan Monastery. On the way home we played “Under the Sheets” and there was a continual buzzing and singing until we reached home with suitcases somewhat heavier than what they were on Wednesday. We wish to extend our sincere thanks to Miss Pierce, our faithful and capable chaperon for the successful and pleasant trip. Page Fourteen
